MORE ON COOLER TEMPERATURES STRAIGHT AHEAD. AUTHORITIES TELL WESH 2 NEWS THEY HAVE IDENTIFIED NEARLY 30 CRIMINAL CASES IN OSCEOLA COUNTY WHICH MAY BE AFFECTED BY THE ARREST OF AN FDLE LAB SUPERVISOR THIS WEEK. 32-YEAR-OLD JOSEPH GRAVES A FORMER DRUG ANALYST, SUPERVISOR FROM FDLE'S PENSACOLA CRIME LAB IS IN JAIL CHARGED WITH MULTIPLE COUNTS OF EVIDENCE TAMPERING AND THEFT OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS SENT TO HIM FOR ANALYSIS. BOB KEALING IS LIVE AT THE FDLE ORLANDO LAB. BOB, ANALYSTS IN SHOCK OVER THE ARREST OF ONE OF THEIR OWN ARE BUILDING THE CASE AGAINST HIM? THAT'S RIGHT, JIM. IN FACT TODAY WE GOT A LOOK HERE INSIDE THE DRUG ANALYSIS UNIT HERE AT THE ORLANDO FDLE LAB WHERE THE WORK HAS BEGUN BUILDING A KRILL CASE AGAINST GRAVES. WE'RE ALSO TOLD THAT INVESTIGATORS HERE AS WELL WILL BE EVALUATING EVIDENCE FROM THE OTHER CASES, SCORES OF WHICH PERHAPS STATE-WIDE WHICH MAY HAVE BEEN JEOPARDIZED BY GRAVES ALLEGED ILLEGAL ACTIONS. HERE IN THE FDLE ORLANDO DRUG ANALYSIS LAB, SCIENTISTS WHO ARE STILL REELING FROM THE ARREST OF THEIR PENSACOLA BASED COLLEAGUE JOSEPH GRAVES ARE HELPING BUILD THE CASE AGAINST HIM. THE ORLANDO FDLE LAB IS TASKED WITH EVALUATING THE EVIDENCE IN THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF MR. GRAVES. BANKS SAYS, HIS LAB WILL ALSO ANALYZE EVIDENCE IN CASES IMPACTED BY GRAVES ALLEGED MISDEEDS. ACCORDING TO HIS ARREST AFFIDAVIT, I KNOW I AM IN TROUBLE, GRAVES ALLEGEDLY TOLD AGENTS, AND ATTRIBUTEED HIS ACTIONS TO BACK PROBLEMS. WE'LL ASK OUR CLIENTS HOW THEY WANT US TO PURSUE IT. BOB WESLEY, THE PUBLIC DEF FOR ORANGE AND OSCEOLA COUNTIES, SAYS HIS STAFF IS INDEPENDENTLY IDENTIFYING CLIENTS AGAINST WHOM GRAVES TESTIFIED OR DID DRUG ANALYSIS. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT PRISON. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE PRISON CASES OR PROBATION CASES. I AM NOT SURE. MY TASK HAVE BEEN TO IDENTIFY CASES AND LET'S GET LETTERS OUT TO THE PEOPLE. FDLE OFFICIALS SAY IT'S VERY POSSIBLE SOME PEOPLE WERE IMPRISONED WRONGLY DUE TO GRAVES ACTIONS. THEY SAY THE 30 OR SO CASES IDENTIFIED LOCALLY ARE FROM KISSIMMEE AND SAINT CLOUD. IN OUR REGION IN CENTRAL FLORIDA RIGHT NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE THE VAST MAJORITY OF THEM WERE MORE MINOR, MISDEMEANOR TYPE OR MINOR DRUG POSSESSION CASES. EVEN IF IT TURNS OUT THAT THE IMPACT OF ALL OF THIS LOCALLY IS NOT AS SEVERE AS FEARED, PUBLIC DEFENDER WESLEY SAYS HE BELIEVES THE LONG-TERM IMPACT OF THIS BREACH OF TRUST COULD BE VERY COSTLY IN THE LONG RUN. WE'LL TELL YOU WHY NEW AT 6:00.
